I'm going to do my hospital bag at the weekend - I'll be 34 weeks and always have it packed by this point - just in case!!!

Hi everyone! Been lurking on this thread for months now since I found out my fiancee was expecting our first child, so thought I should finally register and say thanks. It's been really useful and insightful and I've loved reading all your stories.

My OH is due at the start of July so less than 7 weeks to go! Exciting times ahead!!

Apricot - I'm starting to feel organised, all clothes washed. Infact this child has a bigger wardrobe than me (majority of which is kindly donated by friends!!), but like you I haven't done the hospital bag. Maybe thats something to do this weekend! But if its anything like packing for holiday, if I pack to early, I only un-pack and repack just incase I forget something!!

Due date today! :j No sign of baby putting in an appearance yet though.

Today I've hoovered & polished,moped & scrubbed,unloaded the dishwasher,cleaned the bath & toilets. I am now on the third load of washing,I've hung the rest out. I've swept the path. Bathed myself & my daughter & still nothing! Lol!

Going to go food shopping in a bit. Need to get a few bits in & get some bits to take to hospital.

I've still not finished packing my hospital bag :eek: Baby is sorted but I need to pack clothes for myself. I decided I can't do that until the last minute so all my bag contains is breast & maternity pads & wash stuff. :cool:
